Welcome to the
Oklahoma AgrAbility Project

The Mission of Oklahoma AgrAbility

The Oklahoma AgrAbility Project provides direct service, education & networking to support the rehabilitation and assistive technology needs of Oklahoma farmers, ranchers and their family members impacted by a disabling condition.

 

What Can We Do For You?

AgrAbility offers a variety of services at NO COST to clients:

  • On-site assessments to identify barriers to completing tasks, both in the agricultural workplace and the home
  • Click to download a client application, or view our Direct Services page
  • Recommend appropriate and available assistive technologies (equipment/tools/devices), modified work practices, and other possible solutions to overcome disability-related limitations
  • Information on a variety of topics related to agriculture and disability
  • Workshops, conferences, seminars, and online programs
  • Referrals to other providers for potential assistance including financial, rehabilitative, educational needs
  • Arrange peer support opportunities to connect farmers/ranchers with others who have successfully accommodated their disabilities

AgrAbility is federally prohibited from providing direct funding or equipment. However, the Oklahoma AgrAbility Project works with the Oklahoma Assistive Technology Foundation (OkAT), the Oklahoma Department of Rehabilitation Services, Veteran Affairs and other funding sources to help customers obtain needed assistive technologies and modifications.
